<p>Do schools that accept it treat it the same as if it were a single sitting? Say you had a 2250 single sitting but a 2360 super score. Would colleges just count the 2360 and not think twice about it?</p>
<p>Additionally, I have a question about score choice. If you use it and a college asks you not to, will there be ramifications? It’s my understanding from people on this site that they don’t know if you used it or not.</p>
<p>For the first question, I think that colleges will use both. They look at your superscored SAT,that’s also what they release for the middle 50%, but if it’s a deadlock between you and someone else, and your math dropped by like 150 points the second time, they might admit him/her. I’m not sure if that’s right, but that’s what I have heard. The second question, it’s almost impossible for them to get the scores you didn’t send, but I assume you would get in trouble if they found out; it’s more on the honor system.</p>
<p>Anyone else?</p>
<p>1) I’m not sure if they use it as a tiebreaker as the other poster said, but I know that colleges superscore each section (those that do) without a second thought, unless your score in any section drops more than 60 points. For example, if you got a 800/800 M/CR and a 700 W (like I did) and you retake for Writing, you should make sure your CR/M score doesn’t drop below 740/740. If it doesn’t colleges will superscore without a second look.</p>
<p>2) There are no ramifications; they will not find out.</p>
<p>I seriously doubt that the SAT is used as tiebreakers in such a manner.</p>
<p>What if one section does drop like 100 points?</p>
<p>Anyone? 10char</p>
<p>Bumping this thread. Anyone have experience with this issue?</p>
